This broke on 64-bit big endian, which uses the 32-bit VDSO, with errors
like:

clock-gettime-monotonic-coarse/verify: 10 failures/inconsistencies encountered
timestamp obtained from libc/vDSO not normalized:
[-1574202155, 1061008673]
timestamp obtained from libc/vDSO predates timestamp
previously obtained from kernel:
[74, 261310747] (kernel)
[-1574202155, 1061008673] (vDSO)

Failure threshold (10) reached; stopping test.


The diff below seems to fix it, but I'm not sure it's correct. ie. we
just ignore the top part of the values, how does that work?

cheers
